ROY DAVIS JR.
Roy Davis Jr. is, in no uncertain terms, a legendary DJ and producer from Chicago who has helped to define electronic music. His self titled soul-electronic sound is a hybrid of garage, disco, r&b, house, hip hop and soul and it has graced everything from underground imprints to major league labels since way back in the 1990′s, including the likes of Defected, Strictly Rhythm, King Street Sounds, XL Recordings and Universal, Sony and Warner Brothers.

As a DJ Roy Davis Jr. commands dance-floors and festival stages all over the world with his tight and masterful mixing at places like Smart Bar in Chicago, Yellow in Japan and Fabric in London. Initially turned on to the possibilities of dance music by DJ Pierre, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Marshall Jefferson, and Lil’ Louis, Roy started spinning himself at the age of 12 and during the early 19902 was asked to work as and A&R scout for Strictly Rhythm in New York. Of course, you can’t mention Roy Davis Jr. without mentioning “Gabriel,” released in 1996 on Large Music out of Chicago, Gabriel was tune of the year and still fetches high prices on Discogs today.



Since then Roy has penned or appeared on chart-topping releases for those including Eric Benet/ Faith Evans, Mary J. Blige, Seal and Morcheeba, and has had his own highly rated Chicago Urban House Radio show on Scion 17 for over 3 years. His original productions and remix work garnered rave reviews in such publications as Rolling Stone, URB, Flaunt and Vibe and many more. 


In 2018 Roy relaunched his inaugural artist-run label Undaground Therapy Muzik label, responsible for influencing artists such as Seth Troxler and Daft Punk, and released the first record on the label in 16 years.

Fast forward to now and Roy still remains one of the worlds most prolific DJ's & producers in the history of house music. Once again returning to what Roy loves most, continuing to push boundaries with his DJ sets and ongoing production projects whilst also now focusing on releasing music with artists around the world on UTM.
